Re: 2026 Project 52 - Weekly photos from Geoff F
Week 20 - Malborough 'Airport' - I was recording wildlife beside the old WW2 airstrip which is still used by a group of keen amateur pilots. Not much wildlife around but some aircraft activity required a quick change of lens and camera settings which didn't allow for much 'thinking time'. Midday with a poor hazy light.
New hangar and old bunker, which was constructed as a cold war communications centre in the 1950s

Landing - With all local airports now closed this has become an important landing and refuelling location for cross channel light aircraft.

Customs House and old control tower. That blue hut is now a self reporting customs building with the old WW2 control tower in the background
